Vietnam marine police to step up East Sea protection for fishermen

The Vietnam Marine Police Department has said it would beef up protection for Vietnamese fishermen fishing in the nation’s territorial waters with frequent patrols of the East Sea including areas off remote islands that it has clear sovereignty over.

It would even accompany Vietnamese fishing boats if needed, the department said, adding these measures were being taken in response to a Chinese ship illegally opening fire on a Vietnamese fishing boat recently.
“We will stay 24/24 in remote islands and coordinate with other forces to support, or even accompany the fishermen to protect them,” a VnExpress report quoted department director, Major General Nguyen Dam, as saying.

Dam said the action of the Chinese ship firing flares at Vietnamese fishing boats on March 20 was a serious violation of international laws as well as the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC).

Vietnamese marine police will ask Chinese forces to abide by international laws, he said.

On March 20, the fishing boat of Bui Van Phai, who hails from the central province of Quang Ngai, encountered a Chinese vessel at around 10 a.m. when it was winding up its fishing activities for the day in the Hoang Sa (Paracels) Archipelago.

The Chinese ship gave chase for about 30 minutes, firing flares and leaving after the boat’s cabin caught fire. The nine fishermen on board managed to put out the flames and prevent a potential explosion, Phai said.

On March 25, Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Luong Thanh Nghi condemned the firing as "wrongful and inhumane,” as the boat was fishing in traditional fishing grounds in Vietnam's Hoang Sa Archipelago.

Dam, the Vietnamese general, said marine police are increasing their patrols in specific areas in the East Sea, internationally known as the South China Sea, where Vietnamese fishermen have been fishing for a long time.

“One of our most important tasks is to maintain security and a safe environment for fishermen and ensure marine economic activities,” he said.

The department held a conference in Hanoi on March 29 to review a campaign to enforce sea patrols from November 15, 2011 to March 15 this year.

According to a report released at the event, the national marine police chased away more than 350 foreign fishing boats violating Vietnamese waters during that period.

“This is our permanent task and we will have to do it better in the future,” he said.

“We are determined not to let other countries complicate the situation in the seas under Vietnam’s sovereignty and jurisdiction.”

China and four members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) – Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia and Brunei – are embroiled in sovereignty disputes over the East Sea.

China’s claim is the largest, covering most of the sea’s 1.7 million square kilometers.

Though this has been emphatically rejected by the other claimants and independent experts, analysts warn that Beijing is unlikely to back down from its expansive claims in the region, stretching from the eastern Himalayas to the East Sea.

The East Sea is thought to hold vast untapped reserves of oil and natural gas that could potentially place China, the Philippines, Vietnam, and other claimant nations alongside the likes of Saudi Arabia, Russia, and Qatar.

The waters hold around 11 billion barrels of oil and 190 trillion cubic feet of natural gas in proven and probable reserves, Reuters reported, citing the US Energy Information Administration.

Its like you read my mind! You appear to know a lot about this,like you wrote the book in it or something.I think that you can do with a few pics to drive the message home a bit, but other than that, this is wonderful blog. A fantastic read.I will certainly be back.

My friend, my advice to you is save your hard earned donation cash for the poor. The blogger sourced this article from the state run propaganda Thanh Nien (The youth). There is no such thing as critical journalism in Vietnam. Whatever they say, they do the opposite.

The people in this country is fed up and angry with the corrupt government and their leaders. What they've been doing to this country is to abscond as much cash from public funds. They've handded over the control of the police and security forces to the Chinese, ultimately gifting the whole country to the Communist Chinese in return for protection for the dictatorship regime no one wants to live in.

As per secret agreement in Chengdu in 1990, Vietnam is on path of becoming China's new territory by 2020. The Vietnamese Communists would be worbled into a branch of the Chinese Communist Party. As you can see apparent acts such as: harrassing and imprisonment of human rights and anti China activists, no military actions against Chinese attacks on the East Sea, Vietnamese generals and defense top brass pledge their allegiance to China, Vietnam's police act under the orders of Beijing. Those in power in Hanoi are traitors, Vietnam is falling to become China's next colony just as the same way Tibet was. Vietnamese should fight for their independence, freedom and democracy before it's too late.

On July 24, 2013, Mrs. Duong Thi Tan and her son Nguyen Tri Dung continued to go to the headquarters of the People's Procuracy of Nghe An Province to ask questions and request an urgent resolution regarding the complaint of blogger Dieu Cay. However, when they arrived at the headquarters around 3:00 p.m. all officials had already left the office during office hours.

Blogger Dieu Cay - Nguyen Van Hai, has been on hunger strike for 32 consecutive days in No. 6 Prison in Thanh Chuong, Nghe An. At press time, the blogger is reaching the 33rd day of his hunger strike. The government still conceals all information regarding the health status of Dieu Cay, and his fate is still unknown. Reportedly, local residents saw an ambulance headed to the prison yesterday afternoon.

It has been raining heavily in Nghe An for several days. Mrs. Duong Thi Tan has been sick due to harsh weather and a strenuous week of travelling and seeking justice for blogger Dieu Cay. In addition, she has suffered pains from the wounds on her legs, which were inflicted by previous police tortures. Meanwhile, her son Nguyen Tri Dung is very worried about the life of his father.

Despite being sick, Mrs. Tan and her son travelled under heavy rainfall to the People's Procuracy of Nghe An Province to ask for justice. However, they could not see any official in the office. It seems the officials deliberately to leave the office very early to avoid answering questions from the blogger’s family.

Mrs. Tan walked from the first floor to the third floor in the building but did not see anyone. All office doors were locked although it is not a holiday today, and the time was still in office hours.

The dodging action of officials at the People's Procuracy of Nghe An Province is in sync with the behavior of prison officials of No. 6 Prison, indicating a presence of anomalies. Why are they afraid to come face to face with the family? Is the regime trying to hide something relevant to the life of Dieu Cay?
